3 Purpose The purpose of the Ports Small Business Development Program is to enhance opportunities for small businesses in our region to successfully compete for and participate in the performance of Port contract opportunities. To ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of Port contracts To create a level playing field on which small businesses can compete fairly for Port opportunities. To help remove barriers to the participation of small businesses in Port opportunities To assist the development of firms that can compete successfully in the marketplace outside the Port s Small Business Development Program. 3

Developed a Good Faith Efforts checklist to guide primes through the outreach process and create accountability. 3% 75% *Generally runway improvements 6

10 Program Improvements Planned for FY15-16 The Port will host a biannual open house for subcontractors to meet Port project managers from various departments in an effort to create new business relationships. A training program will be developed for Port staff, to increase awareness of the Port s Small Business Program. The training will provide an overview of the Small Business program, best practices for MWESB participation and guidance on outreach when small contracting opportunities arise. A new cloud based, contract compliance software will be implemented. The new system will allow Port staff to have real time data of small business participation on Port projects. It will also have increased reporting capabilities which will allow us to break down data by race, gender, program area, and location to give us a better understanding of program gaps so we can better address the needs of small business firms. Investigate new programs and partnerships such as the Portland Development Commission PDX Startup program and the USDOT Bonding Education Program. 10
